Latest Patents

Beckwith is credited with 1 patent: “Processing Videos Based on Temporal Stages.” The invention describes a system that identifies an action sequence from task instructions and uses a trained model, such as a recurrent neural network, to determine the task’s chronological stages. A second model, such as a temporal convolutional network, processes the video alongside those stages. Its hidden layers extract video features, while an attention layer assigns weights to those features in light of the stage sequence. The approach is designed to help systems understand actions in videos according to their order within a task.
